"Emulsion" Painting

Upon graduation from college, I moved to New York. I loved the artistic energy of the city, but as a single mother, I sought a less stressful life and moved to Columbus, Ohio, about a year later. Other than a few art classes in high school, I'm completely self-taught, and I always dabbled in art through the years when I had time as an escape from the corporate life where I never truly felt comfortable. After 20 years in corporate and academic jobs, I got downsized from Chase Bank in 2015 and decided to sell some of my artwork at local art shows and online. By 2018, my art business had grown to the point that I only had to work outside the house part-time. By 2020, I began selling my artwork full-time.

I love exploring different textures created by using full body acrylic paints with various mediums like Floetrol and Silicone Oil. I also greatly enjoy mixing various mediums like latex and acrylic paint as well as spray paint and oil based paint.

My work has sold throughout the U.S., Canada, the UK, France, Switzerland, Germany, Dubai, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand, Chile and Argentina and I sold several paintings in Russia (in 2018 before their invasion of Ukraine but my work is no longer available in Russia).
